A volunteer writes: Just ten months old and eager to become someones pet and companion. Shes truly a beautiful mid sized animal and a joy to be with … And I know, I spent some quality time with this wonderful doggie, just the other day. She was very tuned in, as we walked, not pulling once and doing her business just where she should. She also seems to like other animals, not showing an ounce of displeasure as we passed others in her league. I’m pretty certain someone already has taught her to sit, as she was responding to that command, as easy as pie. Scarlett, is part German Shepard for sure, and already is showing some of those fine characteristics, that come with that breed. Scarlett has a beautiful coat of tan and white, and loves to be petted. She has large ears, that are alert to the sounds around her. Now let’s touch upon the idea of adoption … Scarlett is one of those dogs that fit into that category … Homeless, alone, yearning to be part of your life, and your families, to be a friend and companion for the rest of her life. At this age, it’s a perfect time for adoption, and forming her young thoughts around those who would love and care for her. Adoption is hope … Its caring when others fall through. Adoption is filled with rewards, both for the animal and you as the care giver. Won’t you come into our Brooklyn Care Center today and meet with Scarlett … Its one fantastical blessing, waiting for you to make it happen … Come in and see.
